Favorite Crock Pot Recipes

I just realized this is my 701st post.  Wow.  That's a lot of blogging!

As I mentioned before I LOVE using my crock pot this time of year.  There's nothing better than throwing everything in a pot in the morning and being gone all day and coming home to dinner already made.

I've made quite a few crock pot dinners lately and we've loved every one of them, which is rare.

Here are some of my favorite:

1.  Crock pot Baja Pork Tacos from Cara Carroll.  I love her recipe blog (and her teaching blog too!).  She has some of the best and yummiest recipes.  Her cream cheese crock pot chicken was a hit with all 3 of my boys too!

2.   McCormick's BBQ pulled pork packet is SOOOOOOO good and it made so much that we ate it for at least three days straight for dinner.  That's always a plus.  Mike put coleslaw and fried onions on top.  Yum! (the onion part, not the coleslaw part).

  3.  I was looking for a recipe for the crockpot for shepherd's pie.  Owen said that Linda makes it and it's soooooo good and wanted me to make it.  I told him that I made it before, but he didn't remember.  I don't think I really measure up to Linda's cooking in Owen's opinion.  Anyway, did you know there's a lady out there that cooked from her slow cooker for 365 days straight?!  She blogged about it and I get a lot of good recipes from her.  She had a recipe for shepherd's pie and it was deeeelicious and super easy to make. 

Some weeks I am so organized and have every meal planned out and all the things I need already bought from the store.  Other weeks, I am flying by the seat of my pants and quickly throwing something together for dinner each night.  This was one of those weeks.  Hopefully next week I can do better!

Happy Friday!
